Answer:
a) The expected phenotype of the F1 plants is 100% RrBb, red kernels.
b) The expected phenotypic classes in the F2 are: 9:3:3:1
9/16 R-B-, 3/16 rrB-, 3/16 R-bb, 1/16 rrbb
Proportions 9:6:1.
9/16 Red kernel (R-B-), 6/16 Brown kernel (rrB- + R-bb), 1/16 White kernel (rrbb)
Explanation:
<u>Available data:</u>
- brown kernel: R-bb or rrB-
1º Cross) RRBB x rrbb
F1) 100% RrBb (red kernels)
2ºCross) RrBb x RrBb
Gametes) RB RB
Rb Rb
rB rB
rb rb
Punnet Square) RB Rb rB rb
RB RRBB RRBb RrBB RrBb
Rb RRBb RRbb RrBB Rrbb
rB RrBB RrBb rrBB rrBb
rb RrBb Rrbb rrBb rrbb
F2) Phenotypic classes:
<em>9/16 R-B-</em>
<em> 3/16 rrB-</em>
<em> 3/16 R-bb</em>
<em> 1/16 rrbb</em>
Phenotypic proportions:
<em>9/16 Red kernel (R-B-)</em>
<em> 6/16 Brown kernel (rrB- + R-bb)</em>
<em> 1/16 White kernel (rrbb) </em>
Above 30 degrees farenhieit or 0 degrees celcius there would be rain below there would be snow
Light-independent reactions
Right amount of water is the secret.
Answer:
Soils with smaller particles (silt and clay) have a larger surface area than those with larger sand particles, and a large surface area allows a soil to hold more water. In other words, a soil with a high percentage of silt and clay particles, which describes fine soil, has a higher water-holding capacity.
